UNR WINTER SPORTS CLUB
Our Mission
The UNR Winter Sports Club’s mission is to promote and grow the winter sports community at the University of Nevada, whether it be Alpine skiing, Freestyle skiing, Telemark skiing, Nordic skiing, or Snowboarding, on a recreational basis, or with competitive goals. The club will help each athlete reach their desired athletic and academic goals, while promoting the highest standards of friendship, sportsmanship, self-discipline and responsibility. The club is divided into two groups: a competitive group and a social networking group. The focus of the competitive group is competition in all levels of winter sport. The focus of the social networking group is to bring winter sport enthusiasts together on and off the snow.
